Besides that, is there anything similar to dep --pruneworld. It happens to me sometimes that I forget --oneshot and packages are added to the world file that are not intended to be there. So this option gives an overview over packages in world that have no reverse dependencies and thus are probably not needed. There might still be some packages without reverse dependencies in the world file that are intended to be there because the user wants it there, but being presented with a list of possible unneeded packages it is more easy to determine which are intended to be there and which are not. For checking the reverse dependencies of single packages there is of course "emerge -pv --depclean ", but it is a tedious job to this for every entry in the world file. I hacked something together which runs the above command for every entry in world but this is very slow and dep is much faster doing this check.
